Noel

Noel July 2021

Noel almost never turns down a play session, whether it’s with chimps or humans! She loved meeting and playing with Kennedy and Danner, who recently moved to Harmony. 

Noel likes to play on the swing on the right porch while Care Staff clean the left porch. She seems to enjoy observing he process because she comes up to the mesh to see how the cleaning is going. She needs to be watched now in the evenings when we feed dinner because she tries to steal Harley’s vegetables, but we’ve been working on it, and she’s getting better at not stealing! 

Sometimes we give the chimps more blankets through the mesh using a long stick to poke it through and she loves to steal the stick, throw it across the room, and look at us like she is ready do to it again. Another activity she enjoys is swinging on the firehose vines, she holds on tight and goes for a ride. Noel is all about having fun!

This project would not be possible without our many generous individual supporters and volunteers. We rely on donations to fulfill our mission, including caring for our existing residents and expanding the sanctuary to accommodate those chimpanzees still waiting in the lab.
